Chapter 295: Based on the Fact That Jiaojiao Is Our Handpicked Successor
Liu Ruhua and Ou Zhenglin didn’t expect things to be so serious.
The Soul Stone could become a terrifying weapon in the hands of someone with evil intentions.
They didn’t dare to imagine how many innocent people would be killed by that.
“Will you guys not disturb my grandparents anymore if you manage to find the Soul Stone?” Chi Jiao asked suddenly.
She hadn’t experienced this in her previous life.
It seemed like because of her rebirth, everything had deviated from its original trajectory.
As Chi Jiao stared at him with her clear eyes, Jiang Shen felt extremely ashamed. However, he still thickened his skin and nodded. “No one understands the Soul Stone better than the two elders, so I can only trouble the two of you.”
Ou Zhenglin sighed. He had been researching the Soul Stone for decades.
It seemed like he couldn’t sit back this time.
“Then, I’ll help you find the Soul Stone,” Chi Jiao said resolutely. “I’ll help you find the Soul Stone and provide you with all the help you need. After you find it, you can no longer disturb my grandparents’ lives.”
Ou Zhenglin and Liu Ruhua looked at her in surprise. They didn’t expect their little Jiaojiao to make such a big decision.
In their eyes, Jiaojiao was still a child.
Even if they wanted her to take over their positions in 117, they would have to wait until she had graduated from university.
She had made this decision because of them.
When the two elders thought about this, their hearts warmed.
“You?” Jiang Xiaoli looked at Chi Jiao as if she had heard a joke. “On what grounds are you allowed to help us find Soul Stones?”
“Based on the fact that Jiaojiao is our handpicked successor,” Ou Zhenglin said slowly, his gaze landing on Jiang Shen. “Jiang Shen, do you think this is a good enough reason?”
Jiang Shen’s body trembled slightly. He understood what Ou Zhenglin meant.
“Of course I wouldn’t dare to doubt the successor personally selected by Old Ou.” Jiang Shen’s face quickly revealed a smooth smile as he looked deeply at Chi Jiao. “Miss Chi Jiao, then I’ll probably have to trouble you during this period of time.”
Chi Jiao nodded lightly.
“It’s getting late. We should be taking our leave to find the specifics of the Soul Stone. After the new year is over, we will personally look for Miss Chi Jiao to discuss it,” Jiang Shen said as he stood up.
Jiang Xiaoli still wanted to say something, but when she met Jiang Shen’s warning gaze, she could only obediently keep quiet.
“Don’t be in a hurry to leave,” Liu Ruhua said suddenly. “It will start to pour in half an hour. If you guys go down the mountain now, you’ll catch the heavy rain. Stay here for the night and leave tomorrow.”
Upon hearing Liu Ruhua’s words, Jiang Xiaoli hurriedly took out her phone to check the weather forecast.
Indeed, the weather forecast showed a 100% chance of rainfall in half an hour.
Recalling how Liu Ruhua was good at divine calculations and her special ability, Jiang Xiaoli was jealous again.
She also wanted a special ability that could predict the future.
Why was her special ability so useless?
Upon thinking of her special ability, Jiang Xiaoli’s expression darkened.
Jiang Shen couldn’t wait to stay here for another night. There weren’t many chances for him to get close to Ou Zhenglin and Liu Ruhua.
“Thank you, Old Ou. In that case, I’ll do as you say.”
“Grandpa, Grandma, continue chatting. I’ll be leaving first,” Chi Jiao said to Ou Zhenglin and Liu Ruhua.
“Go play with your brothers and Quan Jue,” Ou Zhenglin said to her with a smile.
